AnswerProblems viewing CRM reports

    After publishing a CRM 4.0 app through IAG, users cannot run reports. Users connecting to teh CRM server locally can run them fine. Thinking this is related to the report viewer aspx, I put a sniffer on machine when I'm connecting locally, and I don't see requests outside of the same IP and port number. I'm looking for an explanation for this, and any workaround if possible. Ideally not using the Network connector, or port forwarder. I was hoping this would work wihtout requiring either technology.

    I'd suggest using httpwatch or fiddler or similar to look at the requests from the client that are failing.  Often the problem in a case such as this is that the requests are sent without the "whalecom" HAT signature and threrefore the request doesn't make it thru or a necessary cookie that has a more specific path is not being sent.   If so, you can do a custom SRA or Appwrap to fix the problem and still publish as a true web app without NC, SF, or SSLwrapper.

    Hi,

    Previously I had a similar problem with CRM but for another features (sharing elements).
    I check the option "Allow POST without Content-Type" in the application publishing and all works fine after.

    Hope it helps you,
    Alex

    Hello,

    Also verify that you are opening CRM in a new window or not using the whale toolbar.  CRM doesnt like being inside a frame.

    Thanks
